A New Hampshire man has been sentenced to 25 years to life in prison after pleading guilty to sexually assaulting two toddlers in his care, taking part in videos showing the abuse.

Kevin Blood of Claremont apologized in Sullivan County Superior Court on Wednesday.

He pleaded guilty to two counts of aggravated felonious sexual assault, and two counts of manufacturing child sexual abuse images. His wife, 26-year-old Ashley Blood pleaded guilty to nearly identical charges last month and received a similar sentence.

Sullivan County Attorney Marc Hathaway said investigators recovered 14 videos made of the abuse. Both children were under 5. They have since been adopted.

Hathaway said the sentences make sure that the couple is under supervision, whether in prison or on parole, for the rest of their lives.
